** Play Oledon's Stupid Underdog Picks Game, Week One **
Rules are in a pinned thread above, but the basics are simple. Pick an underdog to win the game. If they win the game--not just beat the spread, but win the game outright--you win the points by which they were the underdog. Most points win.
Pick only one "Stupid Underdog Pick" per week.
Note: This first week there are many games denoted with "NL," or "No Line." Do not pick one of those. I have them up there in case we get a later line, and I will substitute it in.
Good luck.

How about our old buddy Stinger11723 and his Hawaii pick? Stinger is one of the best from year to year. Think he had a slow start last year, but this is more like it.

You're good. Nobody is hurt when somebody picks late; you must missed out on all the great picks like Hawaii :).

Thanks Darrell! It's always nice to get on the board early, and Hawaii has served me well over the years as it seems like I get points on them almost every year. Love this game and glad I can be part of it. Enjoy the games fellas!!

I thought Vandy was a two point underdog and WKU was favorite???? Also Vandy played Thursday night so I am not sure why it was listed in Saturday games. Can I get my money back?
